I know that you can modify sys.path which is where python looks to find where to use import. The question that I should have asked is how does one develop new sage functions. It makes sense for each project to have its own directory to contain the pieces of stuff. What I'd like is to have some sort of function and/or command for a SAGE notebook which would give a list of directories to look in when I do attach or load, so instead of saying
attach somelongpathstring/foo.sage I could just say adddirectory somelongpathstring attach foo.sage and foo.sage could have lines like from bar import baz where bar.py is in the directory somelongpathstring Victor On Jul 23, 1:56 pm, John Cremona <john.crem...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Victor.
